The first model of the Ferrari 360 was the Modena, named after the town of Modena, the birthplace of Enzo Ferrari. Its six-speed gearbox is available as a manual, or an F1 electrohydraulic manual. The 360 Modena went into production in 1999 and remained in production until 2005 when it was replaced by the F430. The Modena was followed two years later by the 360 Spider, Ferrari's 20th road-going convertible which at launch overtook sales of the Modena. Other than weight, the Spider's specifications matched those of the Modena almost exactly. There were 8,800 Modenas and 7,565 Spiders produced.
Ferrari partnered with Alcoa (Aluminum Company of America) to produce an entirely new all aluminium space-frame chassis that was 40% stiffer than the F355 which had utilized steel. The design was 28% lighter despite a 10% increase in overall dimensions. Along with a lightweight frame the new Pininfarina body styling deviated from traditions of the previous decade's sharp angles and flip-up headlights. The new V8 engine utilizes a 3.6 litre capacity, flat plane crankshaft, titanium connecting rods and generates 395 hp (294 kW). The power to weight ratio was significantly improved on over the F355, this was due to the combination of both a lighter car and more power. According to Ferrari weight was reduced by 60 kg and the 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) acceleration performance improved from 4.7 to 4.5 seconds.
